In the liberal utopia, where unicorns graze and wind/solar provide unlimitted free energy, all is fair when "the rich" pay for most of everything and the rest pay some percentage of their meager incomes with the gov't running the show.

Since libs say it's fair, it must be fair! Have they ever lied to us?

Only about how much these entitlements will actually cost.

Good evening, NIMBY.

I have reached the conclusion that there must be a lie detector machine in DC that has a feature which, if the test is failed, almost guarantees anybody will get the job they want. It's the only thing that makes sense to me. Well, that plus the fact that most of them are attorneys, so I can only base my opinion on that. I decided a while back that either aliens from another solar system have invaded DC, or Lucy and Ethel really are in charge, based on the results we're getting!.

Alabama Paul must be pulling his hair out right now, 42-35, with 7 minutes to go on CBS.
Bama has really kept A&M in the game.

Re: Republicans move to halt ObamaCare 'bailout' for angry unions

It is going to get to the point that the determining factor on who gets any Obama Care subsidies is who you voted for last election it will be required for you to be a registered democrat to get one

I'm surprised it took this long for the unions to starting bucking for their piece of the action. I guess keeping their existing coverage wasn't good enough. Now they want everyone else to pay their way. No surprise there.
